None of the ships are sunk they will just not be focused on.
Snowing (Ginny & Josh are out)
Rumbelle (Emilie is out)
OutlawQueen (Sean’s been out)
CaptainSwan (JMo’s out)
We can call it however we want to, either way, it looks as if we’re heading back to Season 1 Format, where ship wars didn’t exist and character development was first and foremost. And frankly, I’m looking forward to that.

Let’s see now….one thing for sure about this Season 7…every ship is officially dead. Snowing are gone, Rumbelle is gone, OutlawQueen’s been gone, & CaptainSwan will be gone. With all ships sunk, that leaves room to focus storylines solely on the characters’ (both new & past) development.
Our list of characters so far confirmed are Regina, Rumple, & Hook….and if Bex is coming back, that will include Zelena, therefore the main list will be mainly anti-heroes/villains. With Andrew West coming aboard, I know we all speculate he’s playing Adult Henry, and with Jared’s exit, that seems all the more likely….however I can’t help but feel there’s a small chance he’s playing adult, Prince Neal, whom to me seems like the next best candidate for the role of Savior considering he’s born out of the same true love as his older sister, who may or may not be deceased at this point.
However with the Savior Mythology being as muddled as it has been this last season….what typically makes a Savior a Savior? What if the next season literally has no Savior this time, and that’s the purpose of Season 7…finding a new Savior? Maybe that’s why JMo would be appearing in the premiere, to send Adult Henry/Adult Prince Neal on his path to find the new Savior.

As @RG suggested, ladies and gentlemen…Welcome to Once Upon A Villain!
Truthfully speaking, I don’t know how I feel about this. Even though they’ve snagged three of the biggest portions of the fandoms, Evil Regals, Dearies, & Hookers….I’m 95.5% sure that’s not enough to carry an entire season. The storyline will be interesting to see play out, but right now…I’m having my doubts.

Also! Everyone needs to read Zach’s thread on Twitter in which he just rails and rails and rails against the fandom and the nonsense that’s going on right now. click on the time stamp and it should bring up his entire twitter thread
So Much Truth Spoken Here!!!!!
And Welcome Home @KFC!!!!

I think if they killed Rumple, it would basically be spitting in the faces of RumBelle fans, especially as RumBelle don’t get any considerable happy screen time together- they’re either fighting or one of them is off-screen or asleep.
yeah but the writers don’t care if it’s unfair to the Rumbelle fans. They’ll say that Rumple died a hero, sacrificing himself to save his family and fulfilling the destiny that should have been his. They’ll say that Rumple freed his son from the clutches of the Black Fairy and that now Belle and Gideon have a chance at a life together because of Rumple.
I agree with both of you unfortunately. I agree that it would be unfair (and cruel) to Rumbelle fans to kill him off after the horrible few seasons that we’ve sat through with all the (often nonsensical) fighting. But I also believe that Adam and Eddy absolutely would kill him off and act like that was a ‘happy ending’ for him and for Belle and Gideon. …I just don’t agree with that at all!
The only way I can half way accept Rumple’s demise is if it’s done in a heroic manner, and they show him reuniting with Neal/Bae on the other side!!! True they would be officially destroying the Rumbelle Ship, but it wouldn’t be the first ship they destroyed after giving said ship horrible treatment. Maybe Belle will take Gideon and go travel the world, and with magic in our world now, I’m sure life will be easy for them given Gideon’s magic. It’s a halfa** happy ending for Rumbelle Family, but at least it’ll be more bittersweet than overall awful.
Personal prediction is fatality and that JMo will appear in 7×01 to pass on her Saviorhood to the new girl.
I agree with this. The only thing I’m slightly on the fence about, is Emma passing her saviorhood to the little girl…whoever this young man is, either adult Henry or Adult Prince Snowflake, I’m leaning toward her passing the role of savior onto.

of course that if it isnt renewed, we may end getting cs on the bug as probably last scene
I thought about that too. But, gods, at least it’ll be over. Either way I think we’re winning here.
My feelings exactly!!!!
I think it’s for the best. Everyone is done with the show. The fandom is done, the actors are done, even the writers are done, though they will never admit it.
You guys should see how Lana Parrilla answers the fandom now…she’s so done with everything!
Fan: What’s your favorite ship?
Lana: My favorite ship? The Jolly Roger!!
I thought about that too. But, gods, at least it’ll be over. Either way I think we’re winning here.
yesh, in the end we are the ones wining, no matter what.
When the show first started, I used to think we’d need tissue and ice cream to survive it….but after the last several seasons….I think all we need is liquor!!! I’ve got us covered on that end, this Sunday if it’s the series finale…whose bringing the confetti and cheesecake?

Let’s be honest…I’d rather ABC end OUAT with the little grace it has left than drag it any further. If Sunday’s the last episode of the show, I’m all for it…if we get a Season 7, I’m terribly on the fence with it.
One way I can see a Season 7 working would be if it’s about the “redeemed” villains finding their own happy endings, whatever that may be. And if Season 7 is about the villains, I can see a shortened S7 working with just Lana, Colin, & Bex.

I agree…this absolutely has a series finale feel to it. So I guess we’ll find out sometime later this week whether or not the show’s coming back.

Rating: 8.5/10
Some parts were cheesy, though that was inevitable! However this really could be the best episode of OUAT this season and perhaps the last two seasons as well! Cast and crew…you guys did it!!! It’s hard to say whose performance was the best, all of them were stellar and stunning, in every way!!
Liked:
I gotta say…I was on the fence with Snowing’s song, but it turned out so much better than I thought! Ginny & Josh served some classic 1930s Disney realness in their duet!!!
“I ruined your parents wedding…least I can do is save yours.” THAT’S CHARACTER DEVELOPMENT!!!
Even though I more so expected Regina to belt out something akin to jazzy Chicago, her savage rock star performance was phenomenal!!!! Slay us all Lana!!!!
Hook’s song was amazing….Killian as the Captain was so much more enjoyable than lovesick puppy. Colin clearly had the time of his life!!!
“Rather gouge my eyes out with a fork!!” Why do I have a feeling that was more Bobby than Rumple?!!!
Bex was amazing!!! Though I’ve got a strange feeling Zelena likes to burst into song anyway!! But she was definetly one of the top three!!! And if WickedSisters had teamed up back in the day…they would have dominated!!
That SwanBeliever scene was everything!!! Such Season 1 Feels!!!!!
JMo did that!!!! Acting and singing wise…she did that!!!
The Ceremony and Final Song was wonderful!!!! Hands down…that could’ve and should’ve been the final scene of the entire series!!! A Happy Beginning!!!!
Mixed:
So the Evil Queen poofed from the dwarves, to Gepetto, to Granny’s!!! If Regina could poof anywhere she wanted, like we’ve all suspected….why did she waste so many years hunting Snow White?!!! Not just that, she had the magic mirror who could show her anyone/anything anywhere….why did she play that cat and mouse game when she could’ve just ended it?! This has been my question since Season 1…can we please get an answer!!
So where was Regina’s guards when Snowing came storming in? And she just poofs them back to their castle…like…Regina, girl…you had them right where you wanted them, and Snowing vice versa. Why did Charming just stand there with a sword to her throat, if you’re going to do it, do it! And Regina, sure you couldn’t kill them because of Rumple, but you could have trapped them away in your Dark Forest or something. This just further proves my theory that Regina & the Charmings much preferred their game of cat and mouse, than actually defeating one another! LOL
Disliked:
Okay…let’s not start back up this whole Rumple vs Hook because at this point…you two are borderline family! Just go out, have some coffee, maybe some brunch and talk this thing out.
That wedding dress…just…hmm…no.
